NAME_DISTRIBUTOR messages are transmitted through unicast link on TIPC 2.0, by contrast, the messages are delivered through broadcast link on TIPC 1.7. But at present, NAME_DISTRIBUTOR messages received by broadcast link cannot be handled in tipc_rcv() until an unicast message arrives, which may lead to a significant delay to update name table. To avoid this delay, we will also deal with broadcast NAME_DISTRIBUTOR message on broadcast receive path.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
